Enacted
This bill, H.R. 2499, proposes to codify Executive Order 14248 , which is entitled "Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections." The primary objective is to elevate the Executive Order to the status of federal law, thereby ensuring its permanence and legal enforceability. Specifically, Section 1 of the bill mandates that Executive Order 14248, as published in the Federal Register, "shall have the force and effect of law." This legislative action would transform the executive directive into statutory law, making its provisions binding and subject to congressional oversight rather than solely executive discretion.
